  1. I have to agree with floatfox. If I had 110k i would not spend it on a titan or silverback. Don't understand why they don't take the same approach as cabal. They put an amazing speced bike on the market with cuatom paint job for 20k less than its competitors
  2. Hi guys . Maybe someone has experience and can give some advice. I am looking to buy a frame from chain reaction cycle. Is there any special import tax on frames like with clothing or just normal 15%
  3. These bikes are really great .. I am having a hard time parting with this frame. It climbs well it handels downhills like no other HT. It soaks up 5m gap jumps it takes drops . What ever you throw at it . It eat it up. Decided to ramp up travel with 20mm and just increase sag to keep it more plush upfront but try and keep geometry more or less the same Will ride it till it dies . Which I think will never happen
  4. Well i will be selling frame and fork and getting something more in line . Its sad not into the mainstream dual sus scene.but seems its the only option
  5. Hi guys . I want to beef up my momsen str to be more enduro capable. 1) i want to add more tavel from 120 to maybe 140 or 150 mm with more sag. Just to make it more sensitive and able to take some of the abuse. I am just afraid that the 69 degree head angle wont be able to handel the longer travel. 2) i would also like to uograde the rims from 23mm rims to 30 mm rims. I am just not sure of it will fit in the frame even with the dropouts all the way to the back. Would really appreciate it if anyone can give some advice or info on what is possible on this bike
  6. You get a lekker pair of baggies. With the weirdes socks you can buy. Then you go to edgars or some place with lekker check shirt . Then you look like a canadian timber man. And rip down the trails. If it gets messed up or you wipe your grease hands off on it its no worries
  7. would love to know how the ride compairs 650b vs 29er
  8. was thinking of then running a bit more sag on the fork . so it should be fine . it is speced to go up to 140mm fork will post some pics when i am home
  9. i have sold my xco bike . and got my self the 2018 momsen str. what a great bike set it up for enduro. 130mm travel fox. hope tech enduro rims . and a lekker 125 dropper . and some wtb 2.4 rubber i love this bike . and i love how responsive the bike is. will not sell it for anything maybe thinking of going 150mm on the fork?
  10. when is the next event for someone to get there feet wet in a enduro event? looks like there is a lot of event in kzn? any in sabie area ?
  11. hi guys looking to get in to enduro. i stay in ermelo MP. what would advice would you guys give to somebody that want to move over from xco to enduro
  12. Good day guys I am in the market for a new set of do it all (train & race) rims. The options is overwelming to say the least. I was thinking of getting a set of mavic rims. seems everybody loves them and cant stop talking about how bom proof they are. With a bom proof price , i must add. I came across the Lyne products . and there wheelsets has all the right numbers that one would be looking for in a set. but i cant seem to find any reviews of how these wheels actualy preform . Is there any hubbers out there with some first hand exprience on a set of Lyne rims?
  13. sitting in the same boat . but lookimg for a nice fatty to enjoy the trails and some few events with . good luck on your bike hunting and enjoy
  14. Hi guys I need help with my xx xlock . I need someone good to send it to in GP or NW .that can help me to bleed the lock out and make sure it works 100% again . Any suggestions please ???
  15. Buy vipa .. its hot full carbon frame .. and not all shops have the skill to service the lefty shox .. Go vipa very good buy
  16. Give rhollof an try its an smal bottel but jou apply one drop to a link .I find it holds me at least 4 rides (avg 50km ride) but it doesn't make your chain as dirty as chainL . I used finish line but didn't work for me .. If you can find it pay the R90 for it . I think it would solve all you problems
  17. That crazy ever considering the titan .. The carbon they use . Is not nearly as good as the trek !! and if I am correct trek has life time warranty ??or is it only on the road frames ??
  18. Aaa the guy looks a little bit like andy !! I mean he got 2 arms just like andy!!
  19. Knee pain is cleat setup that can be wrong . Or your seat post length it to short .. You can do you setup yourself . Or let someone do it for you .
